We came across this article on Realtor.com and spotted this gem in Marshall. Now, we all know the farmhouse look has really taken off. And in Western North Carolina, there’s better than one sitting on a few acres out in the country.
Modern farmhouse has become a wildly popular design aesthetic, thanks in no small part to the tireless evangelism from renovation gurus Joanna and Chip Gaines. It's their thing! New homes and renovated spaces alike now combine clean, modern spaces with comfortable touches of rustic appeal.
These days, large swaths of the nation have been overtaken with shiplap. But besides that ubiquitous design touch, modern farmhouse also incorporates crisp pops of color against a calming white or gray background, wide-plank floors, and upcycled rustic objects. The result? Highly functional and cozy spaces with style to spare.
